I wanna be her calm

If she wanted to leave it all behind

Be a place she could runRealize that if I got to be without her

I′d rather have none

Thinking of ways to stand out

Got to be more than just fun

Got to be

Hoping to uplift the individual we could be better as a sum

One plus one could alleviate some of the pain

When all we're doing is struggling for crumbs

Been a loser for awhile but her presence makes me feel like I won

Afraid of what the reality may be but enough daydreaming

I′m done

It's time for the truth

Show her the things I can do

I can make her laugh

Never make her sad

Check out the way I move

So you can see the way

I handle the day to day

Between work and play

Always seem to fade away

Might change a little if you had a say

If you find me worth it

Past the things and qualities other peoples see on the surface

I'd even be down for the lame his and hers merch shit

Little bit of our pride we′d have to forfeit

But a lighter load could only help to sail this ship

Going crazy cranium searching swerving back and forth on the surface

Trying to find the confidence to convince myself

That I could possibly be worth it

Be a well of nourishment

Where she could hurry quick

Not for condolences

Or for a Rollie wrist

Maybe for the comfort that regardless of the situation

You got my support in this shit

I guess that′s it

A lot of different feelings leave me mixed

We got each other's backs we′ll be fine

Not fixed

But somewhere in-between benign and tragically intertwined

Living life on the line separating chaos from bliss

You put your hand to mine and we could make it consistent

I could meet your folks

Talk to them learn about the people that know you the most

The ones that hold you close

Not for the approval but for the happy review of my constitution and character

See if I can really measure up

Or am I just an embarrassment

Battling back the terrible terror of

Hoping that I can remain enough

Moving like a slug if it means building up trust

Friends saying you you got to be nuts

You need to wake up, open your eyes, scoop out the crust

Dreaming of the day you look me in the face and say

I think I'm in love

A mess of emotion

Sparked by a crazy cardiac arrested heart explosion

Packed my baggage but you helped unload it

What a wild ride but we stay in motion

Always grounded but still feel the floating

Only thing about me that′s worth noting

Is that you choose me after soul searching

I'd like to be close but feel so far apart

What if we′re like a romantic movie

Fated, linked, marked

What could I do to get you to see it

Bit of a joker and you know I mean it

I'd happily go to bat for you

Never wake if I can keep on dreaming

From High School to College and beyond

We can walk hand in hand or do the long distance dance

But only if on occasion I can outstretch my arms

Cause your touch brings me joy

In fact it's what put me on

Whether a studio apartment or park bench

As long as we′re locked in you know we can get it popping

Upgrade to a nice house a dog and some kids

Just to think this all started because you walked up and said

Hey

Hi, so you′re new

Yup, I was in band before so I thought I could drop right in

Well I could show you around, they call me Maps around here

Oh, yeah

Well among other things, but Maps is probably one of them
